== Introduction ==

This page is intended to house the new Kernel Seeds page.

−

Since version 7.x of GoogleEarth the panoramio function has been broken. This is not Funtoo specific, all Linux distributions suffer from it. It is caused by the bundled qt-libs. This can be repaired by forcing GoogleEarth to use the native Funtoo qt-libraries.

== Prerequisites ==

+

Here's what Duncan and I think is a good idea:

−

You need the following up to date packages installed on your system:

+

−

* '''media-libs/freeimage'''

+

−

* '''dev-qt/qtcore'''

+

−

* '''dev-qt/qtgui'''

+

−

* '''dev-qt/qtwebkit'''

+

−

== Procedure ==

+

* kernel-seeds.org redirects to this page.

−

1. If not already installed, install GoogleEarth:

+

* This page has some nice, special graphics on it to differentiate it from the other Funtoo Wiki pages.

+

* This page begins with a short history of Kernel Seeds, giving credit to Pappy and talking about its role in the Gentoo community.

+

* Following this, a short introduction to the concepts behind kernel seeds will be written from scratch.

+

* Existing content will be converted and edited and stored as subpages (ie. Kernel_Seeds/Working_With_Kernel_Seeds)

+

* The latest .config files (3.9.9 era) will be moved to a git repository to allow community maintenance. The older versions will be archived.

This will allow the pages to be maintained by interested users, and allow good integration with the rest of the Funtoo wiki, while maintaining its distinctiveness with its own look.
